DARING DEMONS.
Bold Attempt at Burglary at Mid
day.
The Cable Mansion Entered--Desper-
ate Struggle OF the Marauders for
Freedom--Capture of Eight of the
Gang.

Ole of the boldest and most daring at
tempts at burglary occurred in the upper
end of town shortly after noon today.
Henry Brunswick, who acts as coachman
for the Cable family on Moline avenue,
lives in a cottage on the Cable premises.
about one hundred yards from the man
sion, the cottage and mansion being con-
nected by an electric alarm wire. About
noon today Mrs. Brunswick was at
tracted by the alarm, but paid no attention.
At 1 o'clock she heard it again, and
told her husband, but be thought it was
nothing to cause alarm, and at 2 o'clock
when the alarm again rang, Mr.. Brunc-
wick went over TO investigate. AS
he neared the mansion he heard
footsteps inside. Secreting himself
near by he awaited Developments.
Soon two men came out of the house
and hurried across the Lawn, and attempt
ed to scale the high fence 10 the rear!
One got over but the other was caught in
the hedge, and fell back. Brunswick
grappled with this one, and ne fought
desperately for freedom. The other
one returned to his companions assists
ance, and furious struggle ensued,
during which Brunswick was knocked
down, aud his cries for assist
ance brought c. P. Einfeldt
Ira Peck, two switchmen, to his
assistance, and the fight was resumed,
the desperadoes finally escaping. The
police of Davenport, Rock Island and
Moline were notified. and Officer Nelson
and the marshal captured the burglars
near the c., R. l. & P. round house.
They were taken to the armory, where
they gave their names as Geo. Ward, OF
Fort Wayne, Ind, and John Hahn, Of
Streator, Ill. Nothing was found IL
their possession.
About ? o'clock a desperate appearing
character attempted to force an entrance
to E. P Reynolds mansion, but the ser
want offered resistance. Mr. Reyuold.
was finally called and ordered the stran'
ger to leave, when he threatened TO knocE

an ARGUS reporter was, discussing the
inter state commerce law in the corridor
of the Rock Island house.

the other companies will make longer

"A prominent Snowman recently wrote
Mr.. Cullom as TO the serious effect his bill
would have upon the theatre companies,
put in Mr. Warner. "aad the senator re-
piled that it Was his intention TO provide
for theatre companies but he had neg

But talking of expense said MI
Warner, lock at what it will cost for d
man like Barnum or Forepaugh, where Sc
much per mile must be paid for every
car hauled. No reduced rates there
either, and it will make an almost IN,
calculable difference 10 the travelling ex.

Mr.. Warner is, during the tented show
season, press agent for Barnums shows
and hence is posted on what he speaks

Thus it will be seen that the heavy

The officers of steamboats, will do well
to note The date of their licenses from
time to time, and renew them when nee
essary, as the local inspectors say they
will not accept forgetfulness as an excuse
for violation of the law.
One of cur most practical steamboat
men suggests as az additional protection
for travellers by water that every boat
be equipped with a system OF electric
gongs, one to be placed ia each state
room and one or more on each deck,
| which can be operated from the pilot,
house. engine room. and, in fact. from
almost any part of the boat. Thus, in
case of fire, collision or any other serious
accident, everyone on the boat can be
notified instantly.
The report that Commodore Davidson
has leased the packets of his line to Capt
Burke and Capt. Davis is positively de-
MED by the officials OF the St. Louis
St. Paul Packet company. They say the
line will continue under the same man
agement. Everything is in readiness
for the Inauguration of the years bust
ness, and the line will have boats through
to St. Paul most as early as any othel
route. 1t is well for the upper residents
to recognize the fact that the St. Louis
end of the line is the headquarters Of TIL
the company. and that it would be vel
to consult the officers there on subject
connected with the line.

THE PLAIN LAW.
Tho Industrial Department of
the Home Must be Run.

The Industrial Scnoel in connec-
ton with the Orphans Home at Car
son has been closed down indefinit-
| ely. Thus the State loses a step in
the march of
The Industrial School in connec-
ton with the Orphans Home was
one the best features of the instit-
utlon. The building was the gift
OF the late Senator Sharon and it is
disgrace to Nevada if this school
is allowed to fall into disuse. The
taxpayers of this State are anxious
to know what this means.-ApPEAL.
Commenting on this the Gazette
says: The statute under which the
home was established and is now
operated reads: "All Orphans ad-
mitted to the State Orphans Home
shall, under the direction of its
Board of Directors, De taught the
usual branches of an English Edu-
cation and THE MALE ORPHANS SHALL
BE TAUGHT USEFUL TRADES AND oC-
cUPATIoNs." Now by what author
ity does the Board of Directors close
down the industrial department. of
dissatisfaction? The people through
legislation in plain terms demand the
teaching of useful trades, such as
was contemplated by the projectors
OF this department? If it does not
come from the people the Board is
without authority, but possibly the
Board fears that at the end of two
years the funds will be scarce. Be-
cause this is possible, must either
physical or mental starvation come
upon these unfortunate orphans?
Has public-spirited, humanity-lov-
ing Nevada ever declared a death
or other penalty upon its officers
for lncuring deficiency bill? Has
this State ever refused to pay de-
ficiency bill that was just and prop
err, or even so much as censured |
its officers for incuring such a bill ? |
Much less then would she censure
when the act that might call it forth |
involves the honor of the State and |
the interests of the humanity. In
common with the press of the State
as well as the people generally, the
Gazette would like to hear from the
Board in explanation.
